Happy Birthday, Disney California Adventure! Disneyland Resort’s second park opened on February 8, 2001, so DCA is 18 years young today!

After a rocky start, I think DCA has really come into its own. With the addition of Pixar Pier, Guardians of the Galaxy Mission Breakout, and now Marvel Land coming to the park, there’s so much to enjoy and to anticipate!

But today we wanted to celebrate this enterprising little park by sharing some of our favorite treats — old and new — to get at the snack locations and shops around DCA! Let us know which is YOUR favorite!

Hot Link Corn Dog and Cheese Stick Corn Dog — Corn Dog Castle

It’s not a visit to Disneyland Resort without stopping for a corn dog, and one of our favorite spots is Corn Dog Castle! Here you can get a traditional hand-dipped corn dog, but you can also order the Hot Link Corn Dog and the Cheese Stick Corn Dog. See our review here! The Hot Link is a spicy dog coated in classic corn batter. It’s delicious and packs a bit of a punch!

Hot Link Corn Dog

The Cheese Stick Corn Dog is exactly what you think: a stick of cheddar cheese that has been battered and deep fried. [Read more…]

If you think you’re seeing purple in the Disney Parks (and DFB!), that’s because you are. Purple Potion everything has taken over! Purple is the latest color trend to find its way into food, drinks, and merchandise at Walt Disney World and Disneyland. And at Disney California Adventure Park’s Lamplight Lounge (on the totally fun Pixar Pier!!) the menu now has two funky purple options!

Many thanks to @DisneyObserver on Instagram for sharing these pics with us! (Don’t forget to tag @DisneyFoodBlog so we can see what you’re up to in the Disney Parks!) The Purple Potion menu items at Lamplight Lounge include Berry Berry Purple Cobbler and the Purple Potion Holiday Drink!
